Description:

Lynn Lippert adds a greater emphasis on clinical insights and functional connections to her easy-to-understand, well-organized 4th edition text. This accurate and thoughtfully updated edition is what should be at the heart of the clinical kinesiology course to help students analyze the mobility of specific joints in various activities of daily living. The first seven chapters describe the various body systems, terminology, and biomechanical principles that will be applied in the individual joint chapters that follow.

User’s Review:

This text is required for my OT kinesiology course. It has definitely been helpful and keeps the chapters short so it is easy to manage. It is a great SUPPLEMENT, however, I would not recommend it if you do not have a professor who requires the book and points out flaws in it. My professor has stated several mistakes that the book makes, although they were all relatively unimportant, this should not happen in a textbook. Overall, the book is pretty decent and helps me with my studying and to better understand my lectures.
